When you smell jasmine and freesias in Spring what do you think of?

For me it is always the summer of my first kiss when muskrat love was playing on the radio. Very sweet and innocent.

When you smell jasmine and freesias in Spring what do you think of?
pussy!


I suffer from asthma can freesias affect it when i have some in house i cant breath?

If my asthma is playing up then having freesias in the house does make it worse.





So glad you posted up this question! I've always been a bit embarrassed about it and thought I must be weird!

I suffer from asthma can freesias affect it when i have some in house i cant breath?
wow yes hun all flowers can but freecias are so pungent bin them love xxx
Reply:here is the link for natural astma cure and prevention, this might help take a look..
Reply:yes all flowers that produce strong scents can aggravate asthma and hayfever etc, and freesias are quite strongly scented.
Reply:All flowers can affect asthma sufferers... some worse than others. Fresia and Lilys are notorious due to the large amount of pollen. My son has asthma and i can never have fresh cut flowers in the house (not that anyone ever buys me them). Its the pollen that causes hay-fever that affects the chest/lungs etc. Best thing to do is just to enjoy them from a distance... unfortunately.
Reply:maybe you are allergic to them? i would just avoid them completly if i was you. they have a very strong fragrance, so maybe that could be setting of your asthma.
Reply:Put them outside, if symptoms subside, leave them outside.

Reply:Bichon Frise, french for "hairy little dog" - but please, do some research on the breed before you even think about getting one.
Reply:Well, if you can't spell it, you probably can't afford it. A freesia is a flower!

24 Season 7 Idea?

24 Season 7 Idea





Jack has attempted to start a new life by dating a


woman named Freesia Collins. He has also moved to


Quebec, Canada. As a twist, Jack discovers Freesia


works for CTU Minneapolis in Minnesota and that she


lied about her job as a teacher. He learns this when


he checks the messages from the house they live in.


Jack is upset about her lies, but she says that CTU


Los Angeles has come upon some intel that suggests


that terrorists are attempting to pull off something


like 9/11. They are going to hijack a plane from


Quebec into New York in about two hours, and they will


attack the newly built Farrell Building there.


Jack doesn’t care. He wonders when Freesia was going


to tell him this, she says she wasn’t, she was just


going to break up with him that day and leave the


house. Jack is astonished, then he realizes she asked


to move to Quebec last month just because of this


intel, and he also realizes she was going to be the


agent to go on the plane and attempt to stop this.


She then receives a call from Bill Buchanan and he


asks if she is ready to go on the plane. Out of


impulse Jack grabs the phone and demands that he goes


on the plane so that Freesia doesn’t die.


Bill is stunned to learn that Freesia had been dating


Jack, but he says he will let Jack go.


Freesia asks Jack not to go for her, but he says he is


going because he doesn’t want her to possibly die. He


also says he cannot stand another painful relationship


with lies involved and so he breaks up with her.


Over time Jack gets on the plane with a gun that he


buys. He gets on with the gun because he explains the


situation and that his mission is to be covert.


After the plane takes off and Jack manages to


establish contact with CTU Los Angeles and CTU


Minneapolis things switch back over to Freesia. It is


revealed when she gets a phone call from a terrorist


that she was supposed to get on the plane and initiate


the attack. She turns out to be a Canadian separatist


and a terrorist.


While Jack is on the plane Chloe, who is still


pregnant, begins searching names on the ticket list of


the plane and then she will cross-reference their


names with their known terrorist archive.


As the search for the terrorist continues Freesia, who


is really named Jeanette Bordeaux, meets with three


men who have stolen a U.S. Military plane that is


very, very fast. Apparently it could get to New York


before the plane does. Their Plan B is that once she


gets there she will use a device to cause the attack.


It is later revealed once she gets to New York that


the U.S. will be forced to shoot down the plane


because that will be the only way to stop the possible


hijacking, and her device will override the missiles


they will shoot and cause them to hit the Farrell


Building, and this will be better because it will look


like the U.S. attempting a false flag attack on


themselves.


In the middle of Chloe’s search she realizes her water


has broken and Morris has to rush her off to the


hospital. Bill doesn’t know how to run the search and


so he has to quickly get two replacements from


Division. After the replacements come the search


continues and the replacements learn that no one on


board has any terrorist history.


Jack suddenly realizes that Freesia was going to be on


the plane, and he asks them to search her name. They


begin to, but then Wayne Palmer, who is still the


president and has managed to recover, orders them to


shoot the plane down.


To make a long story short things go according to


Jeanette’s Plan B, and she overrides the missiles and


the Farrell Building is blown up.


Jack realizes that he was set up to distract the U.S.


while Freesia set up the missile override. He has his


theory confirmed when the replacements reveal that


Freesia was an alias and that her real name is


Jeanette Bordeaux.


Back in New York, as the citizens panic with what


looks like another 9/11, Jeanette manages to escape.


She enters a gas station and she asks a man there if


his car is the Corvette outside that was just filled


outside. He says it is and she says she is turned on


by Corvettes.


She then lures this man into the bathroom and says she


will have sex with him, when he gets in the bathroom


she drowns him in the toilet. Then she leaves with his


credit card. She manages to get the gas pump next to


the Corvette going with the card and she pulls out a


lighter and causes an explosion with the pump. This


kills herself and it blows up the entire gas station.


Jack manages to be grounded and he begins showing cops


Jeanette’s photo from his wallet at the airport. He


learns from one cop that amidst all of the panic at


the moment someone in his unit managed to spot this


woman. He gets a report back from this cop who says


the gas station she just went into just blew up. Jack


knows this was no accident.


Simultaneously the people in Washington D.C. see the


attack on the Farrell Building as a false flag since


the news reported that the missiles came from American


fighter jets. They begin a riot outside of the White


House.


Wayne and his staff escape in a helicopter that is


being sent immediately to New York to get a hold of


the situation. The rioters manage to get inside the


White House and they start a fire.


Jack calls CTU Los Angeles and tells them that


Jeanette caused an explosion at a gas station and thus


committed suicide. The replacements, Gerald Perish and


Erica Amos, reveal to Jack that Jeanette works for a


group of Canadian separatists. The leader is named


Pierre Fache. Jack wants background information on


Fache.


Back in Quebec, Fache is aptly watching events occur


on the television. He receives a call and is told to


start some shooting at the White House.


Fache then calls a SWAT person who is at the riot at


the White House and he tells him to start a shooting.


This SWAT person then starts shooting as many rioters


as he can. This triggers more shootings and more


deaths. In the midst of all of this a fire truck team


manages to put out the fire on the White House. Some


SWAT agents move in on the house and receive orders


from the agent who Fache called to shoot all of the


rioters who are on the inside. They begin shooting


everyone.


As the riot gets hotter one rioter sees Wayne’s


helicopter and grabs a SWAT agent’s gun and shoots up


at it.


The pilot of the helicopter says the engine has been


shot from the ground. Slowly the helicopter begins to


go down.


Jack is aptly watching the news at the airport and


hears of the breaking news that Wayne’s copter is


going down. He quickly calls Wayne’s cell phone and he


directs Wayne in how to safely land the helicopter. He


then tells Wayne that he will need to keep running


from the White House because the rioters will try to


kill him still.


The SWAT agent calls Fache and tells him that Wayne


managed to land the helicopter, Fache is outraged and


demands that he goes and kills Wayne so that it looks


lie not even SWAT thinks the attack on the Farrell


Building was an accident.


Jack demands that he get a helicopter so he can get to


Washington D.C. and attempt to stop the fighting.


Meanwhile, an agent from CTU Minneapolis, who is named


Phil Anders, is sent by Bill Buchanan to go into


Quebec and see if he can locate and capture Fache.


Jack is in the helicopter he requested and is heading


to D.C.


Quickly, Fache receives another call; it is revealed


that the person on the other line is ex-Vice President


Noah Daniels. Daniels says that he did not fund this


attack to be failed; he demands that Wayne be found


and killed.


When Daniels hangs up it is seen that out of the


window of his house a sniper is watching from some


bushes. Daniels gets on a radio and says into it,


“There! Fache is handling the assassination of Wayne


Palmer! Happy?” And the sniper answers back, “It is


good to know that threatening your life has made all


of this happen!”


Meanwhile, Wayne enters a restaurant with the pilot of


the helicopter. Here he demands to speak to the


manager. The manager asks what could possibly concern


the president. Wayne tells him there are rioters


outside of the White House and he wishes to hide out


here, disguised as a waiter, so that the rioters can’t


find him. The manager gives him a waiter’s uniform and


comments on how the safety of this country is a


fantasy.


Soon, the SWAT team agent comes into the restaurant


and shoots up the ceiling. He says he saw the


president walk in and demands to know where he is. He


says he must either kill the president or kill


everyone in the restaurant. Wayne jumps out along with


the pilot and they attack the agent. Wayne manages to


stab the man’s hand with a fork and this causes him to


drop his gun.


Wayne then begins to interrogate the agent. Panic has


of course broken out at the restaurant.


The agent will not say whom he is working for, and


Wayne says he knows who can help them get information


out of him. When the pilot guesses Wayne means Jack,


Wayne says no. Wayne says he is going to go to Noah


Daniels’s house and see what Noah can do.


They get the SWAT agent’s keys and get into his car.


Meanwhile, Phil Anders lands his helicopter in Quebec


near a cabin. Phil goes into the cabin with his gun


drawn and a suitcase in his hand.


After a little search of the cabin Phil finds Fache.


Fache asks if Phil brought the package. Phil opens the


suitcase and it is revealed that this is one of the


suitcase nukes Fayed had threatened to use.


“Fayed failed at using this. It is time to finish the


job!” says Fache. Phil says that some CTU agents may


have followed him here since he took the nuke and they


probably noticed. Fache tells him to shoot any agents


who come while he gets in another plane like the one


Jeanette used to fly over Chicago and then blow up the


city. When Phil asks what he should do if there are


too many agents Fache says, “A bullet to the head will


fix that problem.” He then leaves the cabin.


Wayne gets to Noah’s house in the car. On the radio,


the sniper asks who has pulled up. Noah says he


doesn’t know. When the sniper sees that it is Wayne he


says he will shoot Wayne. Quickly Noah runs out into


his driveway and runs in front of Wayne and takes the


bullet. Wayne sees what’s going on and he gets down.


Wayne begins firing at the sniper with the gun he got


from the SWAT agent.


As Noah is dying he says that the sniper threatened to


kill him if he did not cause Wayne’s death. Wayne


manages to shoot the sniper, but not fatally. As he


goes over to the sniper Jack sees Wayne on his PDA in


the helicopter via satellite and he begins to land.


When Jack touches down Wayne tells Jack about


everything that has happened. Jack demands to


interrogate both the sniper and the SWAT agent.


Jack calls Bill and tells him about the sniper and


everything. Bill tells him to interrogate the captured


men. Bill then receives a call from CTU Minneapolis.


They tell him Phil Anders stole the suitcase nuke they


had possessed from CTU Los Angeles and they believe he


gave it to Fache. Bill says this is great Déjà Vu.


After he hangs up he suddenly begins to twitch and to


fall over. The other CTU agents see this and they call


in the medical team.


Meanwhile, Jack is interrogating the sniper. The


sniper says he wants immunity before he says anything.


Wayne grants it because he doesn’t know what else to


do.


The sniper says an Asian man that he only met once


hired him and he doesn’t know his name. Jack asks if


the sniper ever had any pictures of the man that he


could send to CTU to locate the man who hired him. The


sniper says he has photos at his house. Jack says he


wants to be brought to the sniper’s house, but first


he wants information from the SWAT agent.


Jack then gets a call from CTU. They inform Jack that


Bill just had a heart attack and that he’s just gone


to the hospital. Jack asks if anyone knew of Bill’s


heart condition. No one knew about it, and they


suspect it was stress-related. Jack is in a state of


shock.


They also Jack who he thinks is qualified to run CTU.


Jack says Mike Doyle is. This is the end of the call.


Jack then demands that the SWAT agent tells him whom


he is working for. After Jack threatens to use a


chainsaw he finds in Noah’s garage to saw off one of


the SWAT agent’s arms he reveals he received phone


calls from Fache that were orders. He was hired by


Fache to start shootings at the White House and then


to assassinate Wayne. When Jack asks what caused Fache


to attack the U.S., the SWAT agent says Fache is a


terrorist extremist who was funded by Noah to cause


these attacks. The sniper says that Noah funded Fache


because he had started watching his house and


threatened to kill him. Jack realizes that everything


revolves around him finding the man who hired the


sniper and then arresting him.


Meanwhile, Mike Doyle is instated as CTU Los Angeles’s


Director. He then receives a call from CTU


Minneapolis. The CTU Minneapolis Director, Carl


Francis, tells him that Phil Anders was captured up in


Quebec. They were told that Fache escaped with the


suitcase nuke. Mike was not aware of any of this, and


says he wants a recap. He tells Carl that he is the


new director since Bill had a heart attack.


Carl informs Mike about everything. Then as Jack as


driving to the sniper’s house Mike calls him and


informs him of the suitcase nuke. Jack also comments


on the Déjà Vu. Jack tells Mike to locate the plane


Fache escaped in and to shoot it down. Mike says this


wouldn’t be the best idea since this could trigger the


nuke to go off. Jack says he’ll come up with something


and call back.


Jack pulls up to the sniper’s house. Jack tells Wayne


to wait in the car, since he has gone with him. Jack


and the sniper enter the house. Suddenly Jack sees a


bomb. In his haste he jumps out of the window as the


bomb goes off.


Wayne is shocked to see this, but before he can react


two vans come by and armed men jump out. They shoot


both the pilot and the SWAT agent, but they grab Wayne


and kidnap him.


Jack wakes up a little too late.


At the hospital Bill is seen awake. A doctor comes in


and tells him he had a near fatal heart attack. He


will for now need to stay away from CTU because the


stress-level could cause him to have a second attack


that could kill him. The doctor recommends rest and so


Bill is left to sleep.


Jack comes to and sees that the house was indeed blown


up. He then finds an ashen photograph in the debris.


He sees that this photo is of Cheng Zhi. Jack realizes


Cheng hired the sniper and thus was behind everything


that happened today. “Son of a *****!” Jack says.


Jack calls Mike and has him confirm that Cheng is


indeed in holding in Africa. Mike says that after


looking at the archive it looks like Cheng’s file was


destroyed. Jack tells Mike about what he found.


Things switch over to Africa where Cheng is seen


waling calmly through a village there. He pulls out a


satellite phone and calls someone. It’s Fache. Cheng


tells Fache to bring the nuke to him as promised so


that he can retrieve the circuit board and thus aid


China against Russia lie he had planned before. Fache


says he doesn’t care about what Cheng wants; he just


wants to blow up Chicago as he had planned. Cheng


demands that Fache does as he’s ordered to do. Fache


asks Cheng how he can stop him when he’s in Africa.


Fache then hangs up.


Cheng calls some mercenaries and tells them that Fache


is no longer working for him. He tells them to stop


Fache’s plane and to obtain the nuke. They can blow up


any city they want with it, but they must get the


circuit board back to China where it can be analyzed


and thus it can be decrypted for Chinese Military use.


The mercenaries are already in a plane. They are right


next to Fache’s plane. Fache sees how Cheng could stop


him from Africa. Quickly Fache shoots the mercenaries’


plane down and it crashes.


At CTU Los Angeles Mike hears about Fache’s plane


crashing in Chicago from Carl. Mike tells Carl to send


a TAC team from CTU Chicago to the crash site along


with a HAZMAT team. Carl goes ahead and does that.


Fache climbs out of the plane alive with the nuke in


hand. He immediately opens it. Out of nowhere comes


the CTU Chicago TAC Team. They ask that he step away


from the device. He refuses and is about to detonate


the bomb when suddenly the mercenaries show up and


kill Fache. A gunfight ensues and the TAC Team is


taken out. As the HAZMAT team arrives the mercenaries


escape with the nuke. The HAZMAT Team calls Carl and


tells him about the mercenaries and their escape with


the weapon. Carl hangs up and then receives another


call. It is from Cheng.


Cheng says that he is upset with Carl because he


organized Cheng’s escape, but failed to coordinate his


trip back to the United States. Carl apologizes and


hangs up.


Carl then calls Jack. Carl reveals to Jack that he


coordinated Cheng’s escape, but now he wants to help


Jack stop the terrorists by sending Cheng to


Washington D.C. where Jack can question him and get


some more information. Jack is grateful for this


opportunity and asks Carl if he knows where the


mercenaries are bringing the nuke. Carl says he will


call Cheng and find out, but first he must reveal


himself to his co-workers and explain the situation.


Cheng then calls the men in the vans that have


kidnapped Wayne. He tells them to allow him to talk to


Wayne. When Wayne finds out Cheng is behind everything


he is shocked. Cheng says his men have control of one


of the nukes Fayed had used before and that Wayne must


let Cheng get away with the circuit board or he will


order the men to kill him. Wayne refuses and as a


shocking twist Wayne is killed then and there.


Jack is driving and he sees the vans that took away


Wayne. Quickly, Jack shoots the vans’ tires and a


gunfight ensues. Long story short, Jack kills all of


the men and finds Wayne’s corpse. Jack yells out “Why


did this have to happen? Why does everybody I care


about die?” In surrender, Jack points his own gun at


his head; he is about to commit suicide when the phone


rings again.


Jack throws away the gun and answers it. It’s Cheng


and he asks if Wayne is dead. Jack reveals himself and


tells him he knows about him being the mastermind of


today’s attack. Cheng quickly hangs up.


To make this story short Cheng calls Carl back and


lets him know that the attack will take place in


Washington D.C., then he calls the mercenaries who


have the nuke and he tells them the nuke must go off


in order to distract America so that Cheng can have


the package delivered. When he hangs up a supersonic


plane lands nearby. Inside the pilot, who is attached


to Carl Francis back in Minneapolis, brings Cheng.


Cheng grabs a gun and shoots him. Then he flies the


plane by himself.


Things twist some more, more plot would need to be


written, but eventually the mercenaries arrive in


Washington D.C., they manage to get in the White


House. As a twist, they need the bomb activated


properly by an engineer, who turns out to be Charles


Logan, who has changed his name and grown a lot of


hair to change his appearance. Jack finds out that


after Logan was brought to the hospital in the last


season he was saved by the doctors, and he managed to


escape. He’s been living under the name Mitchell


Flanders.


The TAC team from Secret Service who will help him


deal with the bomb meets Jack, but Jack soon gets a


call from Cheng. Cheng tells him that “things are not


as they seem” and that “soon there will be more deaths


across the globe.” Cheng also tells Jack that his


mercenaries have managed to compromise CTU Minneapolis


and that Carl Francis is dead.


While Cheng is on the phone Jack manages to trace


Cheng’s phone, and it appears Cheng is not anywhere


near Washington D.C., but he is actually in New York.


Jack has Mike send a plane to bring him to New York.


While the Secret Service TAC team surrounds the White


House, where the terrorists have managed to bring the


bomb, and military tanks show up, something goes wrong


and Logan sets off the bomb. Washington D.C. is nuked.


Logan had become suicidal, a side-plot, before this


because he had lost his life, his wife, and his


presidency.


Cheng then lands his plane in New York and meets


someone in a building. We do not see this person’s


face until he is actually in a room with this person.


The person is Kimberly Bauer, Jack’s daughter. She has


with her another one of the nukes. Cheng manages


thanks Kim for her hassle. Then he removes the circuit


board and leaves Kim. Then he tells her, “What you


have done here today will help change the world. Soon,


China will rule the world!”


Somehow Jack makes to New York just in time to watch


Cheng’s plane get away.


After all of this confusion, the Vice President, who


has been instated as the new president, Jacob Gary,


arrives on the scene and on the news announces that


because Jack failed to stop Cheng that America will


have no choice but to conduct war with the Russians as


they had feared they might last season.


At the end of all of this Cheng calls Jack again and


tells him of how Kim helped him get the second nuke


and thus, getting him the circuit board he desired.


Jack soon finds Kim, and Mike tells Jack to shoot her


right then and there, because if he doesn’t know she


will most likely be sentenced to death anyway.


Kim says she got into aiding the Chinese when Chase


died, and she had gone to China for help. Instead she


had ended up being recruited by Cheng.


The season ends with Jack having to shoot Kim, and


then he screams at himself for a minute, then a TAC


team from CTU New York City shows up and one agent


tries to stop Jack from committing suicide. The agent


wrestles Jack for his gun and Jack is accidentally


shot in the leg. This is not a serious injury, but for


Jack’s own safety the handcuff him as they drag him


off in an ambulance to receive immediate attention.

Planting freesias?

in what months should i plant freesia bulbs?

Planting freesias?
You didn't mention your zone
Reply:I plant mine out in pots round about middle of August that way it gives the soil a chance to warm up and gives the bulb a good start don't over water them other wise you will rot the bulb once they start coming up then give them more, oh by the way if you are planting straight in to the ground and you have hedgehogs that visit you garden they dig them up and eat them they love young bulbs
Reply:I planted mine in March and then panicked because of impending frosts - luckily mine survived and are now growing well! I find it best to plant them in containers/pots as they need to be lifted when the weather starts to get colder. At least with container planting you can cover them easily if the weather looks like it is going to take a turn for the worse and rather than lifting them you can always bring them indoors before Winter sets in.
Reply:As soon as you get them
Reply:Now ! Right away..
Reply:Most bulbs should be planted around the end of summer?
Reply:After danger of frost. They should bloom the next year.


Freesias in tubs?

i planted some freesia bulbs in some tubs in the first week of April, when do you think they will start coming up?

Freesias in tubs?
You could be lucky, I have had first year flowers from seed (when you can find them superior to corms i.m.o.) and corms. They do best in J I soil based compost, as peat based products dry and deplete rapidly. High % Potash feeds are beneficial. Avoid pots/containers overheating in blazing sun.
Reply:I planted mine in tubs at the beginning of March and they are now about 4 inches tall (some a little smaller) so I guess about 3 weeks to a month. You might want to check how deeply yours are planted - especially if they are not showing any signs of coming through as yet.





The general rule is not to plant bulbs any more than three times deeper than their height. Might be worth having a delve into the tubs to see if they are sprouting but are too deep and then replant them more shallowly if necessary.
Reply:Freesia corms take about 14 weeks from planting to bloom. ... so end of May,or thereabouts.
Reply:freesias don't do much the first year.they will not bloom,untill the second year.sorry

Well that depends entirely on what you would call "reasonable". If you can afford to buy a condo in Vancouver, then you can afford just about anything. Condo prices in Vancouver are anything but "reasonable".

What do I need to do to be sure my Freesia bulbs grow?

I've never planted flower bulbs before, so I'm not sure how to care for them. The package just says plant April-May, bloom June-August. I loosened the dirt, dug holes about 2-3 inches deep, dropped in the bulbs and covered them and watered it. Now what? Do I need to water every day...fertilize...do anything special??

What do I need to do to be sure my Freesia bulbs grow?
First, I wouldn't water everyday - unless it's very hot out, and then only enough for them to get a "drink". Also, they tend to like alkaline soil... I put a couple of websites for you to look at below...the second one is more on "how to" help. Take a look!


Happy growing!

You pay a penalty for small orders, but for bigger quantities the prices are pretty good.
Reply:I love to buy all my bulbs (they have freesia) from Brent and Becky's bulbs. www.brentandbeckysbulbs.com Brent and Becky Heath grow everything on their family farm in Virginia. They are great horticulturalists and great people.


What do you think? baby girl name "Freesia"?

Love the flower, but not the name.

Reply:Sounds very fresh.





Wouldn't ever use it...lots of better options out there.
Reply:Just my opinion.... but I am not fond of it
Reply:NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Reply:I don't care for it at all~ just my opinion...
Reply:I don't really like it.
Reply:It's actually all your choice. I think your daughter may be teased in elementry school, but I'm not the one to judge. If you like the name, you go ahead and name her Freesia, she is YOUR daughter, not mine or the other commenters.
Reply:Not for me, but maybe for someone who's Ethnic? Not trying to be stereotyping but it's certainly not an 'American' name.
Reply:I don't personally care for it. Even though it is a flower, it sounds like a soda pop to me.


What does what we think matter though. If you like it, that's what's important.


My grandmother says when you pick a name you should scream it three times out loud. If you still like it after that, you have a winner.
Reply:Freesia is a pretty spring flower, and a pretty sounding name, but the "free" or "freeze" sounds in the name may lead to unfortunately nicknames or teasing, depending on the child's personality.
Reply:I think "Hi, I'm Free, for the taking!"





Don't like it.
Reply:I don't really like it, it reminds me of a perfume.





A similar name I like is Francisca.
Reply:I don't like it.
Reply:Isn't that a scent at Bath %26amp; Body Works?
Reply:She will hate you later on if you saddle her with this name.
Reply:I don't want to be rude but honestly I don't like it.
Reply:I like it!
Reply:There are lots of other names to use for a girl other then Freesia.

Reply:NOOOOO! WHy would you do that? If you want to name your kid after a flower why dont you use Lilly? Naming your kid freesia would be the equivalent of naming her something like tulip or hydrangea.
Reply:reminds me of Bath and Body Works. sounds too much like soap
Reply:eh. wouldn't be my first choice.


but it's definitely original?
Reply:I don't hate it, but it's kind of odd to me. I do know a little old French lady named Freesia. I wouldn't use it myself. If you like F names, how about:

Do freesia and lilium bulbs multiply yearly?

Normally, they do and every couple of years I divide mine, move some or give some away.

How to safely store freesia and oriental lily bulbs until November?

Can I store them in sand?


I was told to cover them in peat moss and store them in a cool place. How do I keep them from rotting %26amp; drying out?

How to safely store freesia and oriental lily bulbs until November?
Hello, you can cover them with peat moss, but what i would recommend is placing them in a brown paper bag as well in a dark dry place. I assume these lilies are either new or have already bloomed? If they have bloomed already it is wise to let the stalks turn yellow to brown, they are storing energy for next years growth. One good thing about these lily bulbs is that they tend to multiply :) even if in brown bag. I did this with some oriental lilies after they had bloomed, placed in bag and put in my storage area, next spring all the roots had mingled together and had about 5 new bulbs shoot off. They were in the bag for about 3 1/2 months or so. The peat moss will help as insulation while in bag etc... can be purchased at HD or Lowe's. Best of luck.

Can I plant Freesia now in late spring?

No. wait until fall to plant the bulbs. Store the bulbs in a dry place until planting.


My freesia leaves are turning brown from the tips. What is the problem and how to fix it..?

It is only occurring in the potted freesias, those in the garden are ok.

My freesia leaves are turning brown from the tips. What is the problem and how to fix it..?
2 things cause that to happen. Over watering or not enough.


I find it's usually over over watering. We all tend to kill our potted plants with to much kindness.
Reply:I have pretty much the same answer!


Overwatering, but also, maybe, over fertilization.


See the Freesia in the pot s can not get ridof the fertilizer as efficiently as the freezia in the ground.


Lastly Freesia might not like the HEAT of being couped up in a pot as the general coolness of the earth.
Reply:It's either drying out in the pot. Or it's getting too much water from the pot not draining. Two other possibilities would be the roots getting to cold at night or the roots were trimmed when the plant was transplanted but the foliage was not.


Freesia bulbs-transplant in vases?

I have some freesias already up and about to bloom in a couple weeks in my garden. They aren't very strong, and weren't last year as well. Last year they toppled over from the weight of the blooms, and they already are this year as well. I was thinking of transplanting them and bringing them inside. I have these tiny vases about 6" tall, I think they'd look really cute in those.


Do you think any or all of this would work?


Would they need more space around besides the 2" neck?


Gimme your advice.

Freesia bulbs-transplant in vases?
The best is to dig up your flowers and put them in a dark brown paper bag and let them rest till Spring and replant! The possibility that your bulbs will rot in the vase. More Room!


How long untill my freesia bulbs start growing green?

i planted some bulbs last sunday, and all but the freesia show growth. I know they will need to grow roots before anything else, but when shall i excpect them?

How long untill my freesia bulbs start growing green?
Be patient, if you only planted bulbs a week ago I am really surprised you saw any "green" that quickly. They must have been ready to sprout, freesia may just take longer.

When do you plant Freesia bulbs, and when do they bloom?

I am in zone 6. Does anyone know what months to plant Freesia and when they bloom?

When do you plant Freesia bulbs, and when do they bloom?
I'm in zone 9 and mine are in bloom right now. In zone 6, I would wait until early May and they will still bloom in June. (I got this from the tag on mine showing the months to plant by zone.)
Reply:Plant from end of April onwards about 2.5cm deep %26amp; 5cm apart,preferable to plant in shade between low growing shrubs. (might not bloom this year?)


Is it too late to plant freesia bulbs in TX?

I want to buy some freesia bulbs for my friend in TX, but if she plants them now, is it too late?

Is it too late to plant freesia bulbs in TX?
It's not too late to plant them, but it's not the ideal time. You more than likely will not get any blooms this season. Be sure and add a little bone meal or blood meal to the soil when you plant them and they will be better prepared to bloom next season.


A substitute for bath and body works freesia?

Has anyone ever used the freesia spray from bath and body works? I swear by the stuff but its been discontinued so I bought like 150 bottles from several local malls but Im really interested in finding a perfume spray that smells like it, not a body spray. Ive never smelled a freesia spray that smells like the b and b works kind, I dont like how most other brands smell. Thanx!

A substitute for bath and body works freesia?
I worked at BBW for a couple years, and I have not found anything like it yet! You can try Sheer Freesia by BBW. It's a lighter scent, pretty nice acually. Or you can keep doing what you're doing and buy them out of their discontinured brand. Did they give you the 800 number to order it?





If not, you can ask them for it. You can order some discontinued products manufacturer direct!
Reply:ive used sheer fresia if thats what u mean


i have the body wash though not the spray


ive never found any perfume like it


id look at perfumes online


they give u a good description of the smells


good luck!!
